SART Membership: Dr. Mark Denker

SART is the primary organization of professionals dedicated to the practice
of assisted reproductive technologies (ART- IVF) in the United States.
85 percent of the ART centers in the U.S. are improved SART clinics. SART’s
mission is to set and help maintain the standards for ART in the U.S.

Major functions of SART include:

Yearly data collection of IVF outcomes from its member clinics

Close association with the Centers for Disease Control to accurately report
IVF outcomes

Sets practice guidelines and standards and interact with the federal government
by acting as an overseer of ART in this country

Insure quality assurance for fertility clinics in the U.S.

Palm Beach Fertility Center is a SART member clinic, in good standing and
not only follows the requirement of submitting yearly IVF statistics but
also of maintains required JACHO accreditation of our laboratory.

Standards like these have led to a marked decline in high-order multiple
pregnancies, the appropriate use of preimplantation genetic testing, and
the promotion of elective single-embryo transfer. SART also holds all
of its members to strict standards regarding “truth in advertising”
in order to better serve the public.
